They probably still have some stock and have calculated how long the stock should last. The replacement product would _probably_ include Thunderbolt 3, which currently no Mac supports, so a pre-announcement would have been too early. On the other hand, if a customer has been looking for anything _other_ than exactly a 27" screen with non-retina resolution which has exactly the capability to be used with a Thunderbolt-equipped computer, Apple wasn't the display vendor of choice, anyway. Like I always say. (Apple sells far less desktop computers than notebooks by now and far less external displays than a couple of years ago, so this announcement wasn't that big a deal, really.)
